Peter Miller wins Hoad Hill Half!

Peter Miller had an awesome run on Sunday, winning the Hoad Hill Half Marathon! He ran it in 1:37:56, a brilliant time for such a tough course, which included running up and down Hoad Hill (pictured below). He was over a minute ahead of 2nd place! This was a race in which he finished 4th last year.
On Saturday, we had a lot of runners parkrunning. Tony Bacon ran his best 5K as a Haverhill runner, coming 2nd in the Cambridge parkrun in 17:20. He stays 5th on the club records, but improves his time by 10 seconds. Michael Dennison came 20th in 19:28. Karina Hunt ran a personal course record at Cambridge running 33:01. Terry Braverman ran his 303rd parkrun!
Tony Gooding came 8th at Clacton parkrun running 20:35.
Jamie Randall came 19th at the Whiteley parkrun with 21:30.

However, I do always try to include things that are relevant to all runners, since I am not vain enoug […]

This month has been extremely busy one as we wait for the AA inspector to come and hopefully get the rossettes that we have all worked hard for in the kitchen. This month alone neither of us has had hardly any time off, cooking and producing some fantastic looking food, now everyone is getting extremely […]

Its been hard to establish a running routine since I started my job as a chef last November. People say it can be done you just have to work your life around it and find what’s best for you, but when you start work at 10am and get home at 11:30pm then do the same […]

I used to think that because I run and burn loads of calories I could eat/drink exactly what I want which is wrong as food and drink are your fuel to run, after all I am not fat, but my problem is I don’t eat enough and when I loose weight I look gaunt which is […]
